Lunch Break Presentation Project "A Guidance System for the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam"
What does it mean for a public institution to plan barrier-free orientation? How can a comprehensive needs analysis be carried out in which people with and without disabilities have a voice? How can a constructive, joint process be initiated?
As part of the planning of a new, inclusive guidance system for the FH Potsdam, the needs of all users with regard to better orientation were recorded in the summer semester of 2024. A particular focus was placed on the requirements of people with disabilities. Students from the design studio Leitsystem organised a feedback week in collaboration with the Inclusion Advisory Board under the motto "Hinkommen, Reinkommen, Klarkommen". The results of this feedback week provided those involved in the project at Studio Leitsystem and the university with valuable information for the further development of an inclusive and barrier-free campus.
Drafts of the current project status will be on display in the foyer of the main building until the end of January. The project will be presented to all interested parties during the lunch break.
